摘要：We present the full public data release (PDR-2) of the VIMOS Public Extragalactic Redshift Survey (VIPERS), performed at the ESO VLT. We release redshifts, spectra, CFHTLS magnitudes and ancillary information (as masks and weights) for a complete sample of 86 775 galaxies (plus 4732 other objects, including stars and serendipitous galaxies); we also include their full photometrically-selected parent catalogue. The sample is magnitude limited toiAB≤ 22.5, with an additional colour-colour pre-selection devised as to exclude galaxies atz< 0.5. This practically doubles the effective sampling of the VIMOS spectrograph over the range0.5
